    NOTE: If you think you have a better name than "The Jelly Curse", please tell me!

    Help (so far) from: The_Space_Core

    The Jelly Curse is a curse that turns people (humans, other human-like things) into a "See-Through". When the transformation is complete, their skin will be pale, their blood will turn blue, and 2 inches of a transparent outer-skin that resembles gel, or jelly, will cover their body. They are very intelligent and unpredictable. Even though they are intelligent, they will rush towards their victims with no other thought in mind but: kill. Most of the See-Through do this, but some will have different hunting strategies, which make them difficult to kill. They can and will: Pretend to be injured, whimper, run away to lead you to a horde (if there is one), and scream to alert See-Through nearby. Though most will resemble a slightly thinner version of the creature they've infected, some will be even more deadly. The main categories are:
    Tanks: A bulky mess. They are filled with rage and will kill any thing it sees. Their muscles have grown to dangerously strong proportions. They will also grow up to 10 feet tall.
    The Sorrow: Tall and lanky. They are mostly harmless and will walk around aimlessly and cry, muttering the occasional word. The word usually relates to their life before they got inflicted with the curse. When they get harmed by something in any way, it becomes the most deadly of all See-Through. It will holler in rage and barrel towards the thing that harmed it. Its outer-skin will harden, making bullets near useless. The only way of stopping its rage is to kill it, or let it kill the thing that harmed it.
    Screamer: It says it in the name. Though all See-Through can scream to alert others, this one can scream much louder, alerting more See-Through and often forming a horde
    Spitter: The Spitter is a See-Through that has liquefied its organs and reused it for corrosive acid. Though most Spitters will spit at their victim and if they miss they run, some are smarter. Some will use the acid to break the hulls of ships, sucking everyone in the ship into the void.
    Frequencer: Frequencers are very skinny See-Through that have a long horn that replaces their eyes. When a threat is near, they will vibrate their horn at a certain frequency. Certain vibrations will attract certain special See-Through. They can attract The Sorrow, Tanks, and Spitters.
    Well, this is all I got for now. I will add more to it as I think of more things.

        That might be a valid answer.

            Imagine if they could survive in space and on one of the types was acidic so they could chew through the hulls of ships so the entire ship could be infected...

              I'm not planning for them to be able to survive in a vacuum without air, but maybe it would be a kind of kamikaze infected that chewed through the hull on the inside so that way it everyone inside of the ship would be yeeted into the void.

                  From afar of the dark regions of the galaxies, The Corrupted heard the news about the jelly beings. They send the infectious parasite bugs to the yellow and red zone, where the jelly beings wander. Those beings become a target for The Corrupted as their new fate as the jelly undead that serves Plas Mar (in the wrong way).

                  why am i reminded of some fungal zombie that do similar things......

                    The Last of Us? I don't play or have interest in that game. Actually, a lot of my inspiration came from Left 4 Dead 2. Ya know, the Tank, Spitter, etc...

                        The first signs of the jelly beings are on an "abandoned" hospital ship that were attempting to cure Patient 0, but ended up spreading it.

                            One bug examines the hospital ship and if it sees any jelly-infected patient, it directly spits its nanodrones at it.

                                  A See-Through bashes through a door where the bot is near. Its neck has a big flap, almost covering its entire neck. Upon seeing the bot, it lets out a ear-piercing scream. The bot was unlucky, and came across a Screamer. Thundering footsteps are heard all around the bot, and they're only getting closer...

                                      (Uhm, who did you mention to? The bug drone or its nanobots?)
                                      The bug charges at the screamer and injects its nanodrones

                                                (Also, what do the nanobots do once they're inside the See-Through? Do they take control of them or what?)

                                                    Zin01
                                                    (Yes, those nanodrones will hijack the See-Through tissues and eventually find its neural system. I am gonna write more about them in the new thread.)

                                                            The Screamer yelps in pain as the nanobots surge through its body. The bug was unlucky however, and the See-Through come flooding through the corridor. The bug is ripped to pieces. The See-Through see that the Screamer is no longer one of them, and decide to kill it too.

                                                              After both of the infected screamer and bug died, they realize it's not just one nanoparasite attack. They look up the hospital ship window and see more incoming waves of bugs.

                                                              They also see the Imp Leaders that take control of the bugs flying in the open space.

                                                              While the bugs charge at the See-Through beings they can find.

                                                                While the See-Through battle the bugs, one See-Through skinnier than usual retreats to a room. A long horn, which is similar to a rhino horn, replaces where its eyes are supposed to be. Its horn starts glowing as it vibrates at a certain frequency. This thing is known as a Frequencer. it vibrates its at a certain frequency which can attract certain special See-Through, like a tank...
